 Dedicated to the countless number of elders, families, friends, and neighbors near and far who have walked this journey with us over the past twenty years, from lovely Santa Fe, Las Cruces, and throughout our great state of New Mexico, from Ohio, and from the Netherlands, Britain, and Colombia, who have entrusted us to walk through this forest with them. We have shared laughs, tears, stories, and great food in our lovely homes.

 Sierra Vista Alzheimer’s Community was the first assisted living in the great state of New Mexico to be inducted into the Eden Alternative Registry. Eden Alternative is an international movement dedicated to truly changing the culture of how we care for our elders. In essence, is the honor society for long-term care dedicated to transforming the culture of care; being a part of this registry makes a public statement about our commitment to the journey of change.
 Our fabulous caregivers never say no to the risk of normalization while caring for our elders. Elders bake peanut butter cookies with minimal supervision and enjoy every single minute.
Caregivers will prepare the ingredients, oven temperature, and supplies needed for the elders so they can focus solely on the art of mixing and baking. Chunky or creamy, with jelly or with chocolate, peanut butter has been a staple for generations! Our lovely Vista Living homes celebrate National Peanut Butter Day annually on January 24th. |
